If wonder tales are not abundant in England, other kinds of folktales thrive: local traditions, historical legends, humorous anecdotes. Many of the favorite tales which English-speaking peoples carry with them from childhood come from a long tradition-stories as familiar to Shakespeare, Ben Jonson, Spenser, and their many contemporaries as they are to us.
